We visited Parc Ynysderw on Saturday, 5 October 2024, to photograph the FAW Amateur Trophy Round Two match between Pontardawe Town and Giants Grave.
A hat-trick from Ben Wayman helped West Wales Premier League side Giants Grave cause a cup upset as they beat Ardal South West League side Pontardawe Town 3-2.
On a windy but sunny day in the Swansea valley, it was the home side who took the lead through Steffan Pryce on 13 minutes, but two goals from Wayman in the space of six minutes, gave lower ranked Giants Grave the lead at half-time.
Pontardawe dominated possession for long periods in the second half, but couldn’t beat Luke Probert in the visitors goal. Wayman then completed his hat-trick in the 7th minute of added on time to ensure Giants Grave would progress to the next round.
Ernest Armoo scored with the last kick of the game for Pontardawe, but it was too little too late for the home side, who will rue how they didn’t turn their pressure into goals.
